Sash windows are the classic old-world style of windows with a very traditional feel and are often viewed as the symbol of traditional architecture. Sash windows are effective and practical, allowing natural light to filter into the room while keeping out the cold. Because they don’t move around like other types of windows, they make a great choice for an architect or engineer who wants classic aesthetics and high levels of efficiency.
Since they offer classic looks and excellent energy savings, sash windows have long been a popular choice among homeowners. If they are bought and installed correctly, they can help save on energy bills and reduce the effects of draughts easily.
The sashes (operating shutters) have a great impact on the window’s strength and its weight. Due to the heavier weight, breaking in is also substantially more difficult if there is resistance to pushing the window up. Sash windows have long been recognised as robust and secure, with up to separate panels usually filled with broken glass to make a burglar’s task even more difficult.
You can keep your sash windows in good working order with little attention needed thanks to their design, plus their durable material helps them last for many years. The secret is in the way they open. To reduce the risk of rust, the moveable components are sandwiched between two incredibly strong hardwood sides, often with a layer of felt or weatherstripping in between.
Here’s what’s even better: unlike other traditional windows, you’ll never have to replace springs once they break!

We offer a variety of sash window types and styles. Each type of window can have many variations in how many panes are in it and where they are located. We have listed our most popular sash windows below:
A box sash window is one of many styles of sash windows we install. These windows have two vertical wood or metal components; the upper and lower sashes open to allow for ventilation. This style originated in England and became popular due to its lightweight and efficiency in transferring heat. Trade Timber Windows and Doors Bromley-Common creates top-quality, dual-purpose box sash windows that are characterized by a contemporary design and top-quality craftsmanship. By using a series of tapered rails, an extra depth is added to the window frame.
The windows are made from high-quality materials and decorated with premium materials to fit any home style. In addition to triple glazing and warm edge sprigging, box sash windows offer attractive features that are visually pleasing whether viewed from inside or outside your home.
Windows with spring balanced sashes use a counterweight in addition to a balance spring. Spring balanced sash windows are capable of opening much wider than other traditional windows, up to 90 degrees.
Its spring-loaded balance prevents a handle from being used, so, once the window is open, it will stay there until enough pressure is applied to force it shut, like an automatic garage door. They’re also more energy-efficient thanks to their innovative double glazed glass design. With elongated slots and wooden springs, we provide tension to allow the windowpane to move freely while still holding firm in all situations. The combination of these features, combined with our weatherproof, lightweight, and paintable frames have proven to be the most popular choice for period and time-sensitive projects.
These Georgian style sash windows provide extra ventilation and are an excellent choice for those in search of period style sash windows. These additions create an original look in period properties when installed discreetly.
A real statement of quality and style, the Georgian sash with its two sills and arches are an important detail for us here at Trade Timber Windows and Doors Bromley-Common. To ensure quality workmanship, we utilize only top-grade authentic parts, so you can ensure you’re getting a period piece that’s of the highest quality.
A Victorian sash window is a classic double-hung sash window. By sliding the bottom half up or down, and keeping the top half stationary, the frame can be opened or closed. Traditional Victorian sash windows remain one of the most common types of windows to this day.
The reveal is the space left between the bottom edge of the sash and the frame, and it naturally creates openings for cold air to enter. Adding ornate crowns and returns to the top or bottom can further enhance the classic look. There are many beautiful colours available for our Victorian timber sash windows, including a lovely green and blue stained finish to match any exterior. Alternatively, they can be built with a single, double, or triple glazing arrangement. Bring a unique touch to your period home with this delightful window style.
Many people find that Edwardian sash windows look beautiful in contemporary settings as well, even if they were originally built to be used in historical homes.
Regardless of the age of the home, these can add historic style to new or existing structures. An important characteristic of Edwardian sash windows is their unusual shape. Unique since many of its historical features have been created and still kept up today. With quality windows that are custom made for you, you will not only have a symbol of elegance and a refined design but you will also be saving money on your utility bills due to the traditional and authentic design.

There are different frames available for our sash windows, so you can choose the one that is best for you.
With our uPVC Sash Windows, you will experience energy efficiency and optimal weather protection.
Frame materials like aluminium are some of the most versatile on the market. Applied to windows, it provides excellent thermal properties because it is lightweight and rust-resistant at the same time.
Several layers of high-density polyethene (HDPE) with two layers of aluminium create a frame so strong and durable that, when replaced, it will last hundreds of years. To protect the frames against damage from the sun, weathering, animals, and chemicals, a latex acrylic finish is applied.
Wood windows are the best option. Renewable and biodegradable, wood is a renewable resource. Wood frames are widely used for their durability and natural appeal — making them popular among customers.
